A wonderful sound recording. Beautiful ...

Just can’t stop listening to this in a loop. It’s so relaxing....great work.

This is a Mid Side audio recording performed on May 5, 2021 at the wetland Palude del Busatello near Gazzo Veronese - Verona - Italy.
I used a Do It Yourself system by means of a stereo separation baffle inside a 55 cm parabolic dish, in which I inserted two 10 mm microphone capsules: an Omnidirectional AOM 5024 facing the inside of the dish and a figure-eight Primo EM283.
I used a Tascam DR100 mk3 on M/S position recording. 
Please use a good headphones to appreciate the stereo separation!

Nightingale Mid Side parabola recording

Mid-Side recording in Parabolic Microphone Common Nightingale song

5 AM, still in the darkness of mid-March morning, a pair of tawny owls starts vocalising at their would-be nesting grounds. They are probably still in courting phase. Female was desperately calling all through previous evening and male repeatedly approached. In the morning, first thing they did was passionately-sounding lovemaking...  At least that is my interpretation of the audio  recording. 
13. March 2022, 5 AM. Meoma, Estonia. Unattended recording (12 hours). Dogs and rooster in background.

Zoom F3 - Dodotronic HiSound Stereo - Nightingale Song

The song of my favorite bird captured with incredible detail by the Telinga Modular with two EM272 capsules installed in stereo configuration.

Distance from the wood thrush was about 7 meters.

"Sights and sounds of nature are fascinating, I try to capture them both on photos and sound recordings. Unfortunately the diversity of nature is fading away,  I hope that showing the beauty of nature will slow down the merciless destruction of nature by humankind."
